Directory of Information Sources
INTRODUCTION
This manuscript is a directory of Information Sources for food
service managers. Although addressed to managers in school food
service, the Directory is useful to a much broader range of people.
It can be of use by suppliers as well as buyers; students as well
as Executive Directors; and legislators as well as administrators.
HOW TO USE
First determine the category in which your area of interest lies,
by examining the Summary in Table of Contents. This summary will
tell you the Group in which your subject falls. If you are
searching for information on Grading Services, for example, you can
see that this is covered in Group III. If you look below under
Group III topics, you can find the section which pertains to your
area of interest, i.e., meat, poultry, seafood, etc.
If you do not find your topic of interest in either the Contents
Summary or by scanning the Table of Contents, then go to the Index
in the back of the Directory. This index is cross-referenced and
you should be able to pinpoint the page(s) where your topic
appears .
As can be surmised, a directory of this type is not forever. In
order for the manuscript to be most useful it must be updated and
revised at least every two to three years.

ASSOCIATIONS
i
I. Associations
Introduction
Associations can be primary sources of information for food service directors.
Three groups of associations are available for this purpose:
1 - Food Product
2 - Nutrition
3 - Trade and Professional
Neariy any type of product used in a food sennce Idtchen is represented by an
association or sLmilar organization. The degree of support services provided by an
association will depend on its objective, operating budget and often tiie location of
the association's headquarters as related to the point of delivery of a service.
PiDduct A'=»y^at-irqis; The main function of a product association is to promote and
disseminate informatirxi caiceming its products. Scane associations go to great
extent to produce and distribute product information, whereas others are more con-
servative in their efforts.
A food service director can build a substantial file cn product usage by contacting
the appropriate associations.
Many product associations will provide training materials, including films, on the
attributes and diversificatLons of their products as weQl as menu ideas and food
pr^jaration suggestions.
SOTie associations wiU. provide speakers for workshops, meetings or conventions; or
set up booths at food shows to disseminate information on tiieir products.
Nu^"'Hnn AaBOciations are professional in nature and are concerned primarily with
disseminating technical informatican to its members and otherwise promoting the com-
mon interest of the group. These associations are good sources of nutrition
information on a continuing basis. Two other sources of nutrition information on
products are the USD A bulletin, NUTRITIVE VALUE OF AMERICAN FOODS In
Common Units, Agricultural Handbook No. 456 and FOOD VALUES OF PORTIONS
COMMONLY USED by Bowes and Church, revised by Jean Pennington and HeOen
Church,publLshed by Harper and Row, 14 edition, 1985
Trade Aasociations are formed by people who band together to promote their ser-
vices, influence legislation, share knowledge and advance the technology of their
endeavors. An example of this type of association is the National AsBOciation of
Food Processors.
Professional Aasociations function similar to trade associations except the members
concentrate primarily cxi technological advancements in their chosen fields of spe-
cialization. An example of a professional association is the American Pomological
(fruit growing) Society.
I - 1
I . Assoc i at i ons
Introduct i on
The use of Trade and Professional Associations as sources of information might vary
from minimal to very helpful, depending on the objectives of the association and
how it relates to the needs of the public. Two examples of associations which
might provide valuable information to food service directors are the National
Sanitation Foundation (professional) and the Shortening and Edible Oil Institute
(trade).
Listings; Although the latest references were used to locate the associations listed
herein, some may have already changed addresses, phone numbers or directors.
Some associations are cross referenced, i.e., they are put into more than one group.
For example, a milk association might appear under "Dairy" as well as "Milk".
Associations are listed with the prime subject(s) first, for example. The National
Pork Institute is listed "Pork, National Institute".
Information: A food service manager might want to write to selected associations
for information related to his or her needs. Such material might be used as valu-
able sources for training purposes, improving food service or diversifying menus.

PRICES AND MARKET TRENDS
II. Prices and Market Trends
I n t r oduct i on
Information on food prices and market trends can be obtained from
numerous periodicals published daily, weekly or monthly by govern-
ment and private sector organizations.
Price information ranges from general in some instances to specific
in others. In most instances, the price or market condition
reports can be used as barometers in indicating price trends.
Accordingly, price reports can be used as guides in formula buying.
(Formula buying represents a practice whereby foods can be
purchased on an annual contract, based on cost plus a fixed fee.
The appropriate price report can be used as a basis for price
determination at a specific given time.) Some price reports are
more useful for formula buying than others.
Price reports may also be reviewed at least monthly for the purpose
of determining "good buys." Reports may also be used to determine
price escalations which may warrant "laying off" of future
purchases until the market subsides.
Price reports which may be used as buying guides are as follows:

Provides expected supplies of certain foods for the coming
month; tells whether expected to be plentiful, adequate, or
light. Compares current supplies (in percentages) to supplies
for same month a year ago, and to average supplies for the
same month for the last 3 years.
Special issues give additional price and supply background on
food commodities that are so abundant that producers may have
difficulty marketing them.
The price and supply information is better adapted to menu and
procurement planning than as a barometer for current price.

Ill - GRADING SERVICES
Ill
Ill, Food Grading Services
Int roduct i on
The U.S. Department of Agriculture, often in cooperation with state
agencies, provides grading services for a fee for most high volume
food items marketed in the U.S. Although most grading services may
be performed for suppliers or shippers, grading services are also
available to buyers. The USDA and USDC provide grading service for
five groups of kitchen-ready products, as follows:
1. Meats
2. Poultry and Eggs
3. Dairy Products
4. Processed Products
5. Fresh Fruits and Vegetables
6. Seafoods
To obtain information on Grading Services you need only contact the
appropriate office shown on the following pages. The same
procedure can be used if you find it necessary to determine the
point of origin of a graded product. Grade shields, packages or
master cartons, may carry a code number indicating the plant or
shipping point from which a product originated or was graded.
In addition the USDA and the USDC maintains complete sets of Grade
Standards on all items in the Grading Programs. Copies of these
standards can be obtained from the appropriate agency as listed on
the following pages. Moreover, the Departments of Agriculture and
Commerce maintain libraries of literature and films relating to
grade standards. These resources are available to school food
service directors either for the asking, for purchasing, or as
loans in the case of films.
Agencies may also provide speakers or demonstrators in support of
food service workshops. The extent to which agencies may
participate free of charge depends on the location and size of the
meetings and the funds available to the agency at the time.

NOTE: The weight ranges of cuts as shown in these tables do not necessarily reflect any relation
to the carcass weight ranges. Studies have shown that all carcasses within a given weight
range will not produce cuts that are uniform in weight. Therefore, in ordering cuts, pur-
chasing officials should specify the weight rangers) desired without regard to the carcass weights
shown in the various ranges.

Service (AMS) is responsible for the inspection, grading and
acceptance of poultry products, including shell eggs, egg products
and rabbits. Although the inspection of (processed) egg products
is a regulatory function, this activity is included in this section
because the various inspection and grading services are integrated
into one agency.

Standards, Grades, and Weight Classes for Shell Eggs (7 CFR,
Part 56)

in Chicago which conducts analyses of dairy products and also does
fat and salt analyses for beef products purchased by the USDA.
Although Dairy Branch officials may be contacted for information on
the grading and quality of any dairy products, state and local
agencies should be contacted first in matters relating to fluid
milk. State agencies concerned with the production and
distribution of fluid milk are the State Public Health Service and
the State Department of Agriculture. Federal dairy grading and

The functions of some of the foregoing agencies are much more
tangent to food service operations than others. In fact, some of
the aforementioned agencies may be quite remote from the day to day
activities of food service. Nevertheless, these remote agencies
might be the very ones a director may want to know about when the
occas ion arises.
It is the intent of this manuscript to list only those regulatory
agencies whose functions seem relevant to food service. Certain
regulatory agencies are omitted because their functions seem
foreign to this purpose.

IV. Regulatory Agencies Cont'd. 1-FederaI Meat and Poultry
Inspection - Food Safety
The Food Safety and Inspection Service provides Federal inspection
for meats and poultry.
Federal inspection services are provided for all meat, poultry, and
related products processed by plants shipping in interstate and
foreign commerce as required by law. The work includes inspection
of poultry and animals at the time of slaughter and of processed
products during various stages of production and handling to assure
who 1 esomeness of products and truthfulness in labeling. Plant
facilities and equipment are checked for adherence to Federal
sanitation standards.
Federal inspectors also conduct surveillance of foreign inspection
systems and establishments producing meat and poultry products for
export into the United States.
Although most of the meats, by far, utilized by the food service
trades are Federally inspected for who 1 esomeness , some meats which
are not sold in interstate commerce may not be Federally inspected.
It is important, therefore, under such circumstances, to either
avoid making purchases from such plants or check with your State
Department of Agriculture concerning the reliability of the
supplies in question.
Food Service Directors must keep in mind that meat and poultry
inspect ion and grad i ng are two different functions, administered
by different agencies within the USDA. Whereas, meat inspection is
compulsory for product moving in interstate commerce (and nearly
all do), meat grading is voluntary.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) publishes,
semi-annually, a meat and poultry directory which lists MPI (Meat
and Poultry Inspection) approved plants. To obtain a copy, contact
your State MPI Office. This directory can be used either as
product sources or to identify plants of origin from establishment
numbers shown on wholesale cartons.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service is organized to safeguard
the safety and nutritional quality of meat, poultry, and their
products through inspection and analysis and through establishment
of standards, approval of labels, and monitoring of the industry
for compliance with inspection laws:

Chemistry Division, Science Program. The Chemistry Division is
responsible for developing the most economically feasible and
improved analytical chemical methods with increased capacity,
greater sensitivity, and accuracy to determine the presence of
environmental contaminants and drug residues for inclusion in the
ongoing Science Program. The staff also determines the presence of
food additives and nutritional value of meat and poultry products.
The impact of this responsibility is both national and
international in its scope and significance, since domestic and
imported or exported meat and poultry products are analyzed. The
Division:
o Manages the Accredited Laboratory Program designed to
increase the effectiveness of the field inspection
program; conducts a quality assurance program to
assure continuous acceptable quality of analytical
wo r k.
o Participates in reviewing submitted technical
information to assess its accuracy and validity.
Provides professional development and training in
existing and newly developed chemical methods and
techn i ques .
0 Participates with FDA to evaluate residue analytical
procedures with each New Animal Drug Application
(NADA) .
o Conducts highly complex chemical analyses of approximately
4,000 samples of meat and poultry products per year.

food ingredients, nutrition, and product safety. The Division also
provides management for monitoring programs that assess ingredients
and nutrients in meat and poultry products. The impact of the work
performed by the Division is national and international in scope
and significance, since the evaluations of ingredients, nonfood
compounds and packaging materials used in official establishments
involve imported, exported, and domestic meat and poultry products.

The Division:
o Conducts food consumption studies and, with other
Science Divisions, conducts evaluations of exposure
and estimates of health and safety impacts of food
ingredients, additives, and residues.
o Coordinates the formulation of FSIS nutrition policy,
recommends necessary nutritional and food safety
research, and serves as the FSIS information source on
nutrition and product safety related subjects.
o Develops nutritional and food safety criteria for use
in formulating FSIS policy, particularly for meat and
poultry products.
o Conducts approximately 10,000 paper evaluations per
year of packaging materials, chemical compounds, and
direct and indirect food additives used for foods
regulated by FSIS to determine if they meet established
safety requirements. Evaluation of nonfood compounds
and direct and indirect food additives prior to their
use is mandatory.

Standards and Labeling Division, Meat and Poultry Inspection
Technical Services Program. The Standards and Labeling
Division carries out the Department's label approval and
auditing function for all labels that are used on Federally
inspected meat and poultry products. The Division reviews all
complex labeling prior to its use on meat and poultry and
monitors those labels that are approved in the field. The
Division conducts reviews to assure that meat and poultry
products are formulated with safe and suitable ingredients,
that their labels are truthful and not misleading, and that
those labels show are required information.
Formal product standards are developed to specify meat content
and/or usual ingredients of meat and poultry products when
industry members or consumers show particular interest in
increasing uniformity among products using the same product
name. Development of rules to permit or restrict the uses of
various food additives is the responsibility of this office.
Other regulations in the food labeling area are also developed
by the Division, and the Division provides support and advice
relating to assigned activities of Codex Al imen tar i us .

of citizens by supplementing the efforts of Federal inspection.
State officials cooperate with Federal officials on reciprocal
arrangements and have direct responsibility for meats and poultry
processed and sold within a state ( i n t r a-s t a t e ) i.e., that does not
move in interstate commerce.
Further information, support and guidance can be obtained from the

IV, Regulatory Agencies Cont'd. 4-Grain Inspection
- Food Safety
The mission of the USDA's Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS)
is to provide for the establishment of Official United States
Standards for Grain, to promote the uniform application thereof by
official inspection personnel, to provide for an official
inspection system for grain, and to regulate the weighing and the
certification of the weight of grain shipped in interstate or
foreign commerce.
FGIS establishes official quality standards for wheat, corn,
soybeans, oats, rye, barley, flaxseed, sorghum, triticale,
sunflower seeds, and mixed grain. These standards describe the
physical and biological condition of grain at the time of
inspection. In addition, FGIS provides official inspection and
weighing services for rice; dry beans, peas, and lentils; hay,
straw, and hops; and certain processed grain products.
FGIS coordinates and oversees a nationwide system of official
inspection and weighing agencies. This system, which is comprised
of FGIS field offices, State and local government agencies, and
privately owned agencies, ensures the availability of official
inspection and weighing service anywhere in the United States.
Some of the official services provided include: export and
domestic inspections, submitted sample inspections, warehouse
inspections, weighing services, scale testing, stowage
examinations, and protein analyses.
Following are field offices of the USDA Federal Grain Inspection
Service (FGIS). If you have any questions or suggestions about
FGIS services, please contact the FGIS field office nearest you.

IV. Regulatory Agencies Cont'd. 5-Federal Food and
Drug Administration
(FDA) Food Safety
Food service directors may have an occasion to contact an FDA
office in matters pertaining to the violations of product
integrities by food suppliers, or in matters related to labeling
and sanitation. (The FDA concerns itself with products and plants
involved in interstate commerce.)
The FDA has numerous publications which may be of value to food
service directors. A list of publications can be obtained by
writing or calling your regional office. It may also be a good
idea to get on the agency's mailing list for newsletters,
bulletins, news publications, or notices of training sessions or
workshops .
The organization in the FDA charged with the administration of food
safety is the Bureau of Foods. According to the U.S. Government's
Organization Manual, the Bureau conducts research and develops
standards on the composition, quality nutrition, and safety of
foods, food additives, colors, and cosmetics; conducts research
designed to improve the detection, prevention, and control of
contamination that may be responsible for illness or injury
conveyed by foods, colors, and cosmetics.
The Bureau coordinates and evaluates FDA's surveillance and
compliance programs relating to foods, color, and cosmetics;
reviews industry petitions and develops regulations for food
standards to permit the safe us6 of color additives and food
additives; collects and interprets data on nutrition, food
additives, and environmental factors affecting the total chemical
impact posed by food additives; and maintains a nutritional data
bank.
In relation to food, the FDA performs the following services to
name a few:
o Makes periodic inspections of food, and cosmetic
establishments and examines samples of products
to determine whether they are adulterated or mis-
branded.
o Investigates consumer complaints of contaminated
products, injurious effects, and improper labeling.
o Assists industry in voluntary compliance and issues
regulations designed to prevent violations.
o Supervises the recalling of defective products from
the market.
o Initiates court proceedings each year against law

(FDA) Food Safety
o Establishes standards of identity, quality, and fill of
container for food products in line with congressional
mandates to "promote honesty and fair dealing in the
interest of consumers."
o Passes on the safety of food additives and checks to
see that they are used properly.
o Enforces safe limits on the amount of pesticide residues
that may remain on food crops, if any.
o Passes on the safety of colors for use in foods and tests
batches of color subject to certification.
o Requires that all labels identify the manufacturer, list
ingredients as required, and show the net contents
of packages .
o Carries on extensive research to study long-range
effects of chemicals and drugs on animals and humans.
o Protects animal and human health by regulating veterinary
drugs and medicated livestock and poultry feeds.
o Promotes the use of nutritional information in food
labeling to aid consumers in selecting a healthful
diet.
o Conducts educational programs to encourage consumers
to read the label and get the protection which the law
is intended to provide.
o Protects against unnecessary consumer exposure to
radiation by inspection of manufacturers and tests
of marketed products.
o Checks imports of foods to make sure they comply
with U.S. law.
o Cooperates with state and local officials in the
inspection of foods in assuring the removal of
contaminated foods from the market.
WHEN AND HOW TO REPORT TO FDA
Consumers who report problems in sanitation, labeling, and safety
of products regulated by FDA help the Agency to protect all
cons umer s .

(FDA) Food Safety
Such problems, reported by phone or letter, often lead to discovery
and correction of violations, in some cases requiring recalls or
criminal action.
To insure prompt and thorough action on his report, the consumer
must first determine if, in fact, it was the product that was at
fault. Was it used as directed? Was it stored properly? If he
finds the product was at fault, he should report the problem
clearly and accurately to the FDA office nearest him.
The following should be included:
0 Your name, address, telephone number.
o Clear statement of the apparent problem.
o As much detail as possible about the product
label, including code marks.
o Name and address of supplier. Date of purchase.
Save whatever remains of the product or container for your
doctor's guidance or possible FDA inspection. You should also
report the problem to the addresses on the label and to the
suppl i er .
FDA has limited jurisdiction over certain consumer products.
If you have complaints about any of the following, these are
the Federal agencies to inform:
o Suspected false advertising - Federal Trade Commission.
o Meat and poultry products - U.S. Department of Agriculture.
o Sanitation of restaurants - local health authorities.
o Products made and sold exclusively within a State - 1 oca 1
or State health department or similar law enforcement
agency.
o Unsolicited products by mail - U.S. Postal Service.
o Accidental poisonings - Poison Control Centers.
o Pesticides, air, and water pollution - Env i ronmen ta 1

Food Safety
As far as food service directors are concerned, the U.S. Public
Health Service (PHS) is mainly a resource center for information and
guidance. Regulatory matters are generally handled by local (city or
county) agencies, first, then by State "Public Health Services."
As stated in the U.S. Government Manual, the Public Health Service is
the Federal agency charged by law to promote and assure the highest
level of health attainable for every individual and family in
America, and to develop cooperation in health projects with other
nations. The major functions of the Service are:
o to stimulate and assist states and communities with the
development of local health resources and further development
of education for the health professions;
o to assist with improvement of the delivery of health
services to all Americans;
o to conduct and support research in the medical and related
sciences and to disseminate scientific information.
to protect the health of the Nation against impure and
unsafe foods, drugs and cosmetics, and other potential
hazards , and ;
to provide national leadership for the prevention and control
of communicable disease and for other public health
f unct ions."
Following are names and addresses of personnel who may be contacted
for information and assistance.

Serv i ces
If a food service director encounters a food health related problem
with either a supplier, a supplier's products or even within the
confines of his or her own food preparation facility, the first
person to contact is the local (city or county) public health
authority. However, many rural counties and municipalities in
America rely on State Health Authorities for regulatory assistance
and guidance. Moreover, state officials prepare and write
regulations governing sanitation in many food production
establishments such as dairy plants.
State public health organizations, are, therefore, prime sources for
information, guidance and complaints concerning food products,
equipment, facilities and personnel. Food service directors may want
to obtain a complete set of state regulations pertaining to food and
food preparation as well as get on the agency's mailing list to
receive newsletters and bulletins.

regulations apply to packers, distributors, brokers, shippers, and
haulers. Unfair practices may relate to pricing, product
misrepresentation or other causes. Fruit and vegetable firms which

Fair Trading
Fair trade practices in livestock, meat and poultry are regulated
by the Packers and Stockyard Act. This act also deals with
antitrust and financial protection measures. The principal purpose
of the program is to maintain effective competition and fair trade
practices in livestock, meat, and poultry for the protection of
livestock and poultry producers. Members of the livestock,
poultry, and meat industries are also protected against unfair or
monopolistic practices of competitors.
The act also protects consumers against unfair business practices
in the marketing (and weighing) of meats and poultry and against
restrictions of competition which could unduly raise meat and
poul t r y pr i ces .
The provisions of the Packers and Stockyards Act are enforced by
investigations of complaints and violations of the act with
emphasis on detecting instances of commercial bribery, fraud in
livestock marketing and false weighing; requiring adequate bond
coverage for commission firms, dealers, and packers; and the
surveillance of marketing methods at public markets in various
geographical market areas of the country.
The Packers and Stockyards Administration administers the
provisions of the Packers and Stockyards Act of the Truth in
Lending and Fair Credit Billing Acts; and the Equal Credit
Oppor tun i ty Act .
Certain provisions of special interest to food service directors is
the part of the regulatory program which relates to affording
buyers protection against unfair business practices. Accordingly,
if a buyer expects that he (or she) is a victim of unfair practices
or deception he may register a complaint with a regional regulatory
office of the Packers and Stockyards Administration.
Following is a list of offices which can be contacted to obtain
information concerning the protection provided under the umbrella
of the Packers and Stockyards Act.

11-State Weights <5c Measures
Fair Trade Practices
Although the Federal Food and Drug Administration, the Agricultural
Marketing Service and the Federal Trade Commission have regulations
which influence the accuracy of weights and measures in Interstate
Commerce, each state has an agency, usually in the state Department
of Agriculture, which exercises intrastate jurisdiction over
weights and measures.
A food buyer who has a problem with noncompliance by suppliers can
call in a state official who will handle the matter. Problems in
weights and measures may exist in short fill of containers or short
weights. Most food items are sold either by volume, count, or
weight and containers should contain the amount indicated plus or
minus allowable tolerances.
The first step to take when such problems are encountered is to
query the supplier. If you are not satisfied with his explanation
then you should contact the state office for weights and measures.
The National Conference on Weights and Measures, which is sponsored
by the National Bureau of Standards, U.S. Department of Commerce,
coordinates state weights and measure programs on a national scale.

Commi s s i on
Fair Trade Practices
Food service directors may have an occasion to call a regional FTC
office in matters pertaining to unfair competition or price
discriminations. (Tiie FTC concerns itself with matters related to
Interstate Commerce). You may want to contact your nearest FTC
office to obtain a list of publications and to be put on the agency's
mailing list to receive periodicals.
According to the U.S. Government's Organization Manual, the basic
objective of the Federal Trade Commission is the maintenance of
strongly competitive enterprises as the keystone of the American
economic system. Although the duties of the Commission are many and
varied under law, the foundation of public policy underlying all
these duties is essentially the same: to prevent the free enterprise
system from being stifled, substantially lessened or fettered by
monopoly or restraints on trade; or corrupted by unfair or deceptive
t rade pract i ces .
In brief,, the Commission is charged with keeping competition both
free and fair.
The Commission's principal functions are:
o To promote free and fair competition in interstate commerce
through prevention of general trade restraints such as
price-fixing agreements, boycotts, illegal combinations of
competitors and other unfair methods of competition;
o To prevent discriminations in price; exclusive-dealing and
tying arrangements when such practices or arrangements may
substantially lessen competition or tend toward monopoly;
o To prevent the payment or receipt of illegal brokerage; and
discrimination among competing customers in the furnishing of
or the payment for services or facilities used to promote the
resale of a product;
o To regulate packaging and labeling of certain consumer
commodities within the purview of the Fair Packaging and
Labeling Act so as to prevent consumer deception and to
facilitate value comparisons.

This agency is included in this directory primarily for reference by
state food service authorities. In recent years deregulation of the
transportation industry has reduced the regulatory scope of the ICC
significantly. An official seeking information on the regulatory
aspects of transportation should first contact the appropriate state
agency, i.e., State Department of Transportation or Public Utilities
Commission (or other governing regulatory body.) However, most
states have either completely deregulated transportation or elected
to retain a minimum of regulatory features.
According to the U.S. Government Manual, the Interstate Commerce
Commission regulates interstate surface transportation, including
trains, trucks, buses, inland waterway and coastal shipping, and
freight forwarders. Regulatory laws vary with the type of
transportation; however, laws generally involve: certification of
carriers seeking to provide transportation for the public; setting of
rates, evaluating adequacies of services, and approving take-overs.
The ICC assures that the carriers it regulates will provide the
public with rates and services that are fair and reasonable.
The Commission was created by Congress to regulate, in the public
interest, carriers subject to the Interstate Commerce Act which are
'engaged in transportation in interstate commerce and in foreign
I commerce .

NATIONAL SANITATION FOUNDATION

VI. National Sanitation Foundation
The National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) is an independent,
nonprofit organization of scientists, engineers, technicians,
educators, and analysts. It is a trusted neutral agency, serving
government, industry, and consumers in achieving solutions to
problems relating to public health and the environment. The
professional staff is expert in food protection; swimming pools;
water supply, treatment and distribution; and improved disposal of
solid and liquid wastes, including hazardous waste processing.
Standards and criteria are developed in selected public health and
environmental areas; and research, testing, and education are
provided in the fields of public health and the environment.
Services are organized into three major areas: Listing,
Certification, and Assessment.
In 1948, the NSF methodology was developed for uniform national,
voluntary standards relating to public health and environmental
qual i ty--s tandards based on facts, sound engineering, and
fundamental public health principles. This process continues to
bring together people with mutual interests--to study the problesm,
define the need, outline research, and establish national,
voluntary, consensus standards. Over fifty standards and criteria
have been published to date, relating to food service equipment,
water and wastewater treatment equipment, swimming pool water
circulation equipment, health care equipment, and plumbing
products.
Testing and research laboratories, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan,
include specialized facilities for physical, chemical, and
microbiological testing. Firms authorized to use the NSF Listing
or Certification marks on their products or with their services are
subject to annual, unannounced inspections; and the product or
service is routinely retested to assure continued compliance with
the relevant standards or regulations.
The philosophy and methodology for Listing Service programs mandate
involvement of all parties at interest--regulatory , manufacturer,
and user. Together, they assure that regulatory concerns for
health and environmental quality are satisfied by achievable
technologies when standards are developed or revised.
All of these programs are voluntary, but it is not uncommon to find
them referenced in codes, regulations, or policy at any level of
government .

Ser V i ce
The mission of the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is to
provide access to a more nutritious diet for persons with low
incomes and to encourage better eating patterns among the nation's
children. The 10 programs that FNS administers are as follows.
Food Stamp Program. The Food Stamp Program helps needy households
purchase the foods they need for good health. Participating
families get coupons free of charge, which they exchange for food
at authorized stores. The value of the coupon depends on a
household's size and financial circumstances. Food stamps
supplement what a family spends on food.
People apply for food stamps at their local welfare or social
services office. In addition to qualifying on the basis of income,
families and individuals must meet work registration requirements,
maximum resource requirements, and certain citizenship and
residency requirements.

Special Nutrition Programs
1 . Special Supplemental Food Program for Women,
Infants, and Children
The Special Supplemental Food Program is commonly known as WIC
(Women, Infants and Children). It provides nutritious food
supplements to pregnant, breast feeding, and postpartum women
as well as to infants and children up to the fifth birthday.
WIC is operated by local health clinics and other authorized
health programs. WIC benefits are currently provided by
approximately 7,100 clinics throughout the country.
To qualify, mothers and children must be individually certified
as "nutrition risks" because of dietary need and inadequate
income. Each participating mother or child receives
individually prescribed packages of foods high in protein,
iron, calcium, Vitamin A, and Vitamin C.
Depending on the age and nutrition needs of the woman, infant,
or child, the package includes such foods as i ron- f or t i f i ed
cereal, eggs, juice, and either milk or fortified infant
formula or cheese. In some areas, peanut butter or dry beans
or peas may also be provided. Participants get nutrition
education along with the supplemental foods.

WIC clinics provide supplemental foods in one of three ways.
They obtain foods from local firms and distribute them
directly; they arrange for home delivery; or they give mothers
vouchers to exchange for specified items at authorized grocery
stores. Most clinics give participants vouchers.

Food Programs Division - (703) 756-3746
Commodity Supplemental Food Program
The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) distributes
USDA-donated foods to low-income women and children certified
by participating local health agencies. Those eligible include
infants, children up to age 6, and pregnant or breast-feeding
women vulnerable to malnutrition.
To take part in the CSFP, women and children must qualify for
benefits under an existing Federal, state, or local food,
health or welfare program for low-income people. Some state
agencies also require that participants be determined to be at

3 . Food Distribution Programs
Through the Food Distribution Program, USDA purchases surplus
foods from U.S. markets and distributes them to state agencies
for use by eligible local agencies. The foods go to schools
and institutions participating in the child nutrition programs,
to nutrition programs for the elderly, to needy families to
hospitals and prisons, and to the needy under the Temporary
Emergency Feeding Program (TEFAP). The foods are also used to
help victims of natural disasters. The largest percentage
(value) of USDA-donated foods goes to schools.

4 . Child Care Food Program
Tiie Child Care Food Program helps child care facilities and
institutions serve nutritious meals and snacks to preschool and
school-aged children. To participate, facilities and
institutions must be licensed or approved to provide child care
services. They must also meet certain other eligibility
r equ i r emen t s .
The program operates in nonresidential day care centers,
settlement houses, outs ide-school -hours care centers, family
day care homes, institutions providing day care for handicapped
children, and others. Participating facilities and
institutions get cash assistance, USDA-donated foods, and
technical guidance. In child care centers, the amount of cash
assistance varies according to the family size and income of
children served. In day care homes, the amount of cash
assistance is based on a food service payment rate.
Contact: Samuel Bauer, Director, Child Nutrition
Division - (703) 756-3590
5 . Summer Food Service Program
The Summer Food Service Program for Children helps communities
serve meals to needy children when school is not in session.
The program is sponsored by public or private nonprofit school
food authorities or local, municipal, county, or State
governments. Public or private nonprofit residential camps
also may be sponsors.
The program operates in areas in which at least 50 percent of
the children served by the site meet the income criteria for
free and reduced-price school meals. USDA reimburses sponsors
for operating costs of food services up to a specified maximum
rate for each meal served. Higher administrative rates are
provided to rural areas to encourage their participation in the
program. In addition, sponsors receive some reimbursement for
planning, operating, and supervising expenses.

Child Nutrition Division - (703) 756-3590
6 . National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs
The National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs help
schools serve nourishing low-cost meals to children. In
addition to cash assistance, participating schools get
USDA-donated foods and technical guidance. Payments to schools
are higher for meals served to children who qualify on the
basis of family size and income for free or reduced-price

8 . Nutrition Education and Training Program
Under the Nutrition Education and Training Program, funds are
granted to the States for the dissemination of nutrition
information to children and for inservice training of teachers
and food service personnel. The program's major goals are:
o To encourage good eating habits and teach children the
relationship between food and health.
To train food service personnel in nutrition and food
service management and to encourage the use of the cafeteria
as an environment for learning about food and nutrition.
To instruct educators in nutrition education and in the use
of the cafeteria as a learning laboratory.
To develop appropriate educational materials and curricula.
The program is for all children in public and private schools
and in residential and nonresidential child care institutions.
Through the program, the Department of Agriculture hopes to lay
a strong foundation for community involvement in nutrition
education and to contribute to general consumer awareness of
the relationship between proper nutrition and health.

and (2) to develop other knowledge needed to improve the quality of
diets. Research activities are in four general areas:
Nutrient Data Research. HNIS provides accurate, up to date, and
comprehensive information on the nutrient composition of all foods
important in American diets. This involves gathering and
evaluating nutrient data from literature and from Government,
university, industry, and other laboratories, and generating data

not found elsewhere through sponsorship of extramural research.
Data are processed through a computerized National Nutrient Data
Bank and disseminated in machine-readable and published form. The
Agency also cooperates with other countries and international
organizations in the development of information on the nutrient
content of foods.

Food Consumption Research. HNIS plans, coordinates, oversees, and
analyzes information from the Nationwide Food Consumption Survey
(NFCS), related supplemental surveys, and methodological research
for these surveys. Information is provided in forms readily
applicable to multiple policy and program uses relating to
agriculture, food assistance intervention, food quality and
regulation, and nutrition education. NFCS provides comprehensive
information on household food use, food cost, and socioeconomic
variables as well as on food intakes and dietary practices of
individual household members. HNIS staff and staff from the
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) jointly develop and
implement the National Nutrition Monitoring System (NNMS). As part
of the system, HNIS will initiate a Continuing Survey of Intakes of
Individuals in 1985. This survey is designed to monitor the
nutritional quality of diets of the population and of
subpopulat ions of nutritional risk on a timely basis.

Diet Appraisal Research. HNIS conducts and interprets food and
nutrition research to solve practical problems faced by Government
policymakers, educators, health professionals, and consumers.
Examples are:
o Estimate the nutrient content of the national food supply each
year to show trends in nutrient availability and food sources
of nut r i en t s .
o Keep current the USDA Family Food Plans and estimate costs
monthly. The thrifty food plan is the legal standard for
benefits in the Food Stamp Program.
o Study factors affecting diets, such as the use of fortified
foods, the use of convenience foods, eating away from home, and
participation in food assistance programs.

Service-USDA
The Agricultural Research Service (ARS) conducts research
activities at 136 locations nationwide, in Puerto Rico, the Virgin
Islands, and in 8 foreign countries. Much of this research is
conducted in cooperation with State partners in the universities
and experiment stations, other Federal agencies, and private
organ i zat ions.
A national program staff, headquartered at Beltsville, Md . , is the
focal point in the overall planning and coordination of the ARS
national research programs. The focal point for day-to-day
management of the various national research programs assigned to
specific field locations is the reg ional /area structure which is
comprised of 4 regional offices, 11 area offices, and 8 major
research centers.
Although some of the results of post harvest and meat science
research may be of interest to school food service directors, the
area of most interest may be the research conducted in Human
Nutrition. To promote optimum health and well-being through
improved nutrition the ARS mission is to:
o Define nutrient requirements at all stages of life.
o Determine the nutrient content of agricultural
commodities and processed foods as eaten and establish
the bioavailability of nutrients in these foods.
0 Improve human nutrition status by making available
techniques to assess the effectiveness of nutrition
programs .
0 Integrate knowledge of human nutritional needs into
the agr icul tural / food system.
The ARS human nutrition research is conducted primarily at five
separate Human Nutrition Research Centers and at Regional
Utilization Laboratories. The centers maintain close communication
with each other and the research programs are coordinated through
the National Program Staff. Each center has a different research
thrust and provides its unique contribution.
Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center, Beltsville, Md . The
history of the Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center can be
traced to 1894, when Congress authorized the Office of Experimental
Stations with headquarters at Wesleyan University in Middletown,
Connecticut, to carry out human nutrition investigations. The
headquarters was moved to Washington, D.C., in 1906, and to
Beltsville," Md . , in 1941. The mission of the center is to define
human requirements for the essential nut r i en t s -pr o t e i n ,

carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, and minerals for optimal health
and performance and to identify, through study of their nutrient
composition, the foods that meet those nutritional requirements.
This center also is concerned about the metabolic role of nutrients
and with understanding the many interactions of nutrients with
other food components and the effects on bioavailability. Emphasis
at this center is on the nutritional requirements of adults and on
development of food composition analysis methodology.

Children's Nutrition Research Center at Baylor College of Medicine,
Houston, Texas. The Children's Nutrition Research Center (CNRC) ,
established in 1979 in response to Congressional mandate, is the
only center that deals exclusively with research on nutrient needs
and nutritional status of mothers, infants, and children. Its
mission is to define the nutritional requirement that will ensure
optimal status in pregnant and lactating women and in infants and
children through adolescence. Emphasis is being given to protein
and energy requirements of women for pregnancy and lactation and of
infants and children for growth. Noninvasive methods involving
stable nonradioactive isotopes are used as tracers of individual
nutrients to determine their absorption and utilization.

Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center, Grand Forks, N.
Dakot a . The mission of the Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research
Center, established in 1963, is to develop recommendations for
nutrient intakes in humans and to identify useful nutrient forms,
with particular emphasis on mineral requirements. Although the
main thrust of research is directed toward the role of trace
elements in nutrition, other essential nutrients (for example,
protein, carbohydrate, and fat) are not overlooked. Those
nutrients are studied in collaboration with several other
scientists at various universities and at other ARS locations.

Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University,
Boston, Massachusetts. The Human Nutrition Research Center on
Aging was established in FY 1980 in response to the mandate of
Congress. Its mission is to determine the nutrient needs of the
elderly and the relationship of dietary factors to the aging
process. Investigations are carried out to determine the influence
of diet on the onset and course of aging and the manner in which

was established on April 6, 1980, when Congress ordered the
transfer of the nutrition research program of the Army, located at
Letterman Army Institute of Research, Presidio of San Francisco, to
the USDA. The mission of the center is to improve methods for
assessing human nutritional status and to study the factors that
lead to malnutrition. This center also conducts studies on human
nutritional requirements and on factors that influence them, with
emphasis on vitamin requirements.

Research Accomplishments
1 . Chromatographic Procedures Described for Determination of Non-
amphoteric Penicillins in Milk and Animal Tissues
Methods for analyzing animal tissues and milk for residues of
nonamphot er i c penicillins were developed using high
performance liquid chromatography and thin-layer chroma-
tography. The chromatographic procedures are faster than
the bioassay procedures now used. They are suitable for
identification of the type of penicillin present which cannot
be done by bioassay procedures.
2 . Method Developed for Determination of Tylosin in Tissues and
Blood Serum
A method was developed for determination of tylosin in tissues
and blood serum using high performance liquid chromatography.
Previously no specific method was available for determination
of tylosin in tissues and blood serum. Tylosin cannot be
distinguished from other antibiotics by bioassay procedures.
3 . Low Voltage Electrical Stimulation May Not Produce Quality
Improvemen t s
Research in 1981 showed that low voltage (20-40 V) electrical
stimulation for beef may not be sufficient to create the
quality and tenderness enhancement usually associated with
high voltage electrical stimulation.
4 . Hot Processing of Beef Loins Into Steaks To Be Frozen May Be
Feas i bl e
Hot-boning of beef loins into steaks to be frozen may be
possible without tenderness problems if electrical stimulation
is used on the carcasses and slow freezing (at - 23 C) is
used with the steaks.

Strip Loins From Hot -Processed , Low Quality Cows May be
Palatable With Certain Conditions
Hot-boning is a suitable processing system for producing strip
loin steaks of acceptable tenderness from low quality cow
carcasses if tenderizing systems such as aging, blade

Electrical Stimulation and Hot-Boning Provide Color Improving
Benefits Under Retail Display
The color improving benefits associated with electrical stimu-
lation in carcasses extend into retail display. In addition,
steaks from hot-boned primals appear capable of being held
longer under retail display than steaks from cold-boned
primals before the occurrence of extensive lean surface
discoloration. As a result of these two situations, lean
color pigmentation and/or lean discoloration may not be a
good indicator of bacterial levels and shelflife on
electrically stimulated and/or hot-boned beef retail cuts.

10 . Effects of Freezing, Refrigeration, and the Cryoprotect i ons
of Campylobacter jejuni
A 1000-fold reduction in numbers of C. jejuni is seen upon
freezing inoculated ground beef. This deleterious effect may
be ameliorated through the use of either glycerol or dimethyl-
sulfoxide cryoprotectant . The number of inoculated C. j e j un i
remained constant in ground beef when held in Cary-Blair
dilutent at refrigeration temperature.
11 . Thermal Inactivation of Campylobacter jejuni in Broth and in
Ground Beef
C. j e j un i was inoculated into brucella broth which was then
subjected to temperatures of 55 and 60 C. A reduction in
numbers of one and one-half logs was seen at 55°C and
approximately ten times the reduction was seen at 60 C.
However, a plateau effect, with minimal die-off was noted at
60 C after four minutes of heat was applied to the cultures
of C. j e j un i . The organism was inoculated into ground beef
which was then placed into an oven with temperatures of either
190 or 218 C. No viable cells remained after 30 minutes of
heating. These findings indicate that C. j e j un i is killed
through typical cooking procedures.
12 . Selectivity and Sensitivity of Three Media for Recovering
Campylobacter jejuni from Ground Beef
Three of the most commonly used selective agar media were
assessed for selectivity and sensitivity in recovering C.
j e j un i from inoculated ground beef. Butzler's medium proved
most selective while Campy-BAP was the most sensitive. Recom-
mendations are suggested to use a combination of these two
media for recovery of the pathogen from foods.
13 . Process Variations Do Not Affect Vitamin Contents of Bacon
No significant differences in vitamin content were found
between bacons originating from bellies treated with high or
low salt contents. Thus, the only impact of high sodium input
on nutrient composition may be in the variations in the sodium

A new thornless blackberry, Hull, was introduced. This new variety
will join the other four (4) introduced cultivars of productive
thornless blackberries developed at Beltsville.
Two new everbearing strawberry varieties, Tristar and Tribute, were
i n t roduced . These varieties are disease resistant; producing a
crop during the spring, another during the fall with some berries
during the summer..
A virus-free strawberry variety collection was established. The
strawberries are grown from meristem in tissue culture and stored
at low temperature until n'eeded. This is the only collection of
its kind and serves as a repository of old and new varieties.
Presently 160 varieties are in the collection.

Recent Research Accomplishments
Cell wall composition affects ripening and decay; Two cell wall
polysaccharides were i den t i f i ed wh i ch are mod i f i ed during ripening
and data such as this will provide a good system for future studies
aimed at identifying the genes and proteins involved in bioregula-
tion of ripening and senescence. The growth of five pathogenic
fungi on cell wall-related monosaccharides and on native cell wall
fractions showed that substantial variation existed in the ability
of fungal pathogens to utilize the cell wall as a source of carbon
for the energy required for colonization of fruit. This implies
that cell wall is a factor in r es i s t ance/ suscept i b i 1 i t y of fruit to
fungal decay.
Chilling injury determined by ACC changes: The level of 1-amino-
cyclopropane-l-carboxy I i c acid (ACC) was found to be useful as an
index for the chilling injury of cucumbers. The irreverisble
symptoms of the injury usually does not occur until much later than
the physiological changes inside the plant tissues. The internal
ACC level increased with increasing length of exposure to chilling
temperatures of 2.5, 5.0 or 7e5°C, but not at nonchilling
temperatures of 10 or 12.5°C. Early prediction of the damages
caused by chilling temperatures can reduce losses at the market
places and help maintain a consistently good quality of produce.

Apple quality maintained by CaCl : The quality was maintained and
senescence was delayed by pressure infiltrating 8% CaCl into
freshly harvested Golden Delicious apples. After 4 months of 0°C
I storage, firmness and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) was 35 and 30%
greater, respectively, in treated fruit than in control. The
treated fruit did not discolor as rapidly after cutting as the con-
trol fruit, and the treated fruit produced less ethylene than the
control. These results suggest that supplemental calcium is help-
ful in maintaining the integrity of apples and perhaps other
commod i t i es .
Apple rot reduced by CaCl^: The effect of calcium on postharvest
decay of apples caused oy Penicillium expansum appears to be
indirect in that it mai<es the host or substrate less available to
degradation by the fungal enzyme system. Postharvest treatment or
fruit with calcium solutions apparently stabilizes or strengthens
the cell walls of the host, thereby making the cell wall more
resistant to enzymes produced by the pathogen, which in turn slows
penetration of the fungus and decreases decay.
Ribosomal protein used to distinguish bacteria: Two-dimensional
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of structural ribosomal protein
was found to be a potential powerful tool for distinguishing
closely related rot causing bacteria. Control methods have been
difficult to ascertain because these bacteria could not be clearly
identified and their physiology and growth studied. These and
additional studies will provide data on factors that need to be
incorporated into new cultivars of resistance and for development
of innovative, low cost, and effective method of control.
HPLC methods developed for vitamins B. and : The high-
performance liquid chromatography methods were developed for
measuring thiamine (vitamin B ) and riboflavin (vitamin B2) in
fresh fruits and vegetables. These methods, compared to the older
methods, are more efficient, makeis the analysis faster, and gives
more accurate data on these low content vitamins. These methods
will be used to collect vitamin data of breeding lines and of fresh
produce that are subjected to experimental and regular postharvest
handling conditions. The information will be important for the
nutrient data bank.
DLE method developed for measuring stress: A technique has been
developed to follow the time course of stress-related changes in
the surface chlorophyll of intact fruits and vegetables. The tech-
niques are based on nondestructive measurement of delayed light
emission from chlorophyll. To date, it has been shown to be sensi-

The USDA's Economic Research Service ( ERS ) conducts a wide variety
of research and analysis on food and agricultural issues, some of
which relate to human nutrition. Research is conducted on food
consumption patterns and their determinants, changes in dietary
practices, and the effects of government policies and socioeconomic
factors on food consumption.
ERS studies use data from existing surveys such as the Bureau of
Labor Statistics' (BLS) Continuing Consumer Expenditure Survey,
USDA's Survey of Food Intake of Individuals and Survey of Household
Food Consumption, and the Department of Health and Human Services'
(DHHS) Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Food Consumption Patterns. ERS develops estimates of annual per
capita food consumption used by nutritionists in USDA's Human
Nutrition Information Service (HNIS) in estimating average per
capita nutrient availability. This information is developed in ERS
through analyses of the supply and utilization of agricultural
product s .

(202) 447-6860
Determinants of Food Consumption and Dietary Practices. ERS
conducts research on factors that influence consumer demand for
major food products and individuals food items. Socioeconomic
factors that are analyzed include regional population shifts,
increasing life expectancy, rising incomes, declining birth rates,
and health and nutrition concerns.
ERS information is useful for projecting demand as population
characteristics change as well as aid in identifying population
sublets whose intake of certain foods are high or low relative to
the national average. In FY 1984, ERS conducted three studies
related to food consumption and demand:
o Improved methodology of forecasting per capita food consumption.
o Determinants of expenditures for food at home and away from
home.
o Frequency of purchase of selected foods and household food
expenditures.

policies, on both producers and consumers. This research provides
insight as to the effects of existing and alternative food and
agricultural policies on food consumption, dietary levels, and the
nutritional status of target populations. In FY 1984, ERS
conducted four major studies on the implications of the food
assistance programs for food demand. The specific studies include:
o Analysis of alternatives to the National School Lunch Program
using an econometric framework to quantify the effects of USDA
commodity donations and purchase programs.
0 Effects of eliminating the Food Stamp Program's purchase
requirement on farm income of producers of meat and dairy
products.
o Effects of the 1981 Agriculture and Food Act and the 1981 and
1982 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Acts on food expenditures of
low-income households.

-Extension Service
USDA
The Extension Service (ES), is the "educational arm" of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture and is charged with the mission to "reach
and teach people." Extension helps the public learn about and
apply to everyday problems the latest technology in farm and family
resource management, developed through research by the state land
grant universities, the Department of Agriculture, and other
sources. The Extension Service serves 3,150 counties in the Nation
with local offices and provides educational information at
meetings, office calls and through the mass media.
The Extension Service has a major responsibility for diffusing
research-based nutrition, food science, and food safety principles
and concepts through the Cooperative Extension System (CES). Over
25 percent of all resources allocated to Home Economics is directed
to human food and nutrition education programs. Extension
professionals teach clientele improved decision making and resource
management; assist them to gain knowledge and skills; and alert
them to pertinent applied technology and available research
f ind i ngs .
Paraprof ess ional aides are employed in Extension's Expanded Food
and Nutrition Education Program to teach low-income families how to
use limited food resources to improve family diets. CES education
programs for youth and adults promote better health through
knowledge of nutrition and prevention of nutrition related health
problems. The entire program focus is aimed at educating the U.S.
population at the grassroots level. Professionals, paraprofes-
sionals, and trained volunteers design and deliver food and
nutrition programs for local needs.
Program priorities are:
o Improving nutrition practices through economical use of
local food purchases, preparation, preservation, and
s t or age .
o Identifying the main determinants of food selection at all
socioeconomic levels and how dietary habits affect
nutr i t ional status .
o Using the best means of knowledge transfer to culturally
and educationally diverse populations.
o Maintaining readily available, objective and credible data
based on research relative to human nutrition, food
safety, and health.

1-State Departments
of Agriculture
State Departments of Agriculture can serve as good sources for
regulatory information and assistance particularly with regard to
meat and poultry inspection and weights and measures. These
agencies can also be used as sources of information for sources of
f ood s upp lies.
Some state agencies work closely with school districts in promoting
the use of state-grown produce and animal products. This process
can be useful in providing plentiful foods at worthwhile savings,
particularly items in surplus supply.
Food service directors might want to initiate cooperative programs
with their State Departments of Agriculture by contacting the
appropriate officials. See the following list for the names and
addresses of state agricultural commissioners.

1^1 NIFDA has three Grade A labels, Prime Pak for those fruits and
vegetables from areas which are acknowledged as prime growing
areas. NIFDA claims these products exceed USDA Grade A by 5
points. In Royal Pak, the growing areas are not as closely
discriminated but the product will still grade out 3 to 5 points
higher than minimum USDA Grade A specifications. Dandy Pak meets
the Grade A USDA minimum specifications.
3^/ Distributors of North American may develop their own labels, but
use North American packers and grade standards. They may also use

State Agencies (SDA)
Following are the State Distributing Agencies (SDA) for the
distribution of USDA Donated Foods in the various states and
territories. Whereas, some agents serve in dual capacities, others
do not. The list excludes TEFAP (Temporary Family Assistance
Programs) (sometimes referred to as Special Distribution) because the
program is conceived to be intransit.

IX. Purchasing Assistance Cont'd. 2-General Services Administration
The General Services Administration may provide support to food
service directors in several ways, as follows:
o The Government Services Administration operates the
Office of Acquisition Policy which in turn administers
the Federal Procurement Regulations. These regulations
are applicable to all civilian agencies.
o The Federal Information Centers of GSA serves as a clearing-
house for information about the Federal Government. Persons
with questions about a government program or agency may
call or write the nearest center.
o The Consumer Information Center of GSA publishes quarterly
"The Consumer Information Catalog," which is free and lists
more than 200 selected federal publications of interest to
consumers, including information on food, nutrition, and
managemen t .
o The Information Management Division of GSA administers
requests for information regarding the Freedom of
Informat ion Act .
o The National Audiovisual Center of GSA is the clearing-
house for all federally produced or sponsored audio-
visuals. Through the Center, educational, civic, and
community groups can gain access to motion pictures,
filmstrips tapes, slide sets, and other audiovisual
materials produced by or for Federal agencies. Depending
upon the particular item, materials can be purchased or
rented. Free preview of some materials is available to
educational and nonprofit groups.
o The GSA publishes bi-annually the United States Government
Manual, which provides comprehensive information on the
agencies of the legislative, judicial and executive
branches, A typical agency description includes a list
of principal officials, a summary statement of the agency's
purpose, a description of its programs and activities, and
a "Source of Information Section." This last section
provides information on consumer activities, contracts and
grants, and publications.
o The Federal Register office of GSA publishes annually "The
Code of Federal Regulations." This documenmt may be of
interest to food service directors. In addition to the
Office of the Federal Register, other documents of general
interest, i.e., the Federal Register publishes daily; "The
U.S. Statutes at Large" which is published for each session
of Congress; publications are also made documenting
proclamations and executive Orders.

X. Purchasing Assistance Cont'd. 3-Cotnniod i ty Futures
Trading
(Title 17, Part 140)
Job-related interest in commodity futures trading is limited to
food service operations witli large purchasing power who may want to
hedge against price increases in pork bellies or soybeans, for
example. It may be well however, if food service professionals
knew something about how the commodities market operates.
Future trading in commodities is regulated by the Commodities
Futures Trading Commission (CET), which also acts as a source of
information for wou 1 d-be- 1 r ade r s .
The Commission consists of five major operating components: the
divisions of enforcement, economics and education, trading and
markets, and the offices of the executive director and the general
counse 1 .
The Commission regulates trading on the 11 U.S. futures exchanges,
which at the end of fiscal year 1983 were offering 93 active
futures and options contracts. It also regulates the activities of
some 5,724 commodity exchange members, 461 public brokerage houses
(futures Commission merchants), about 55,000 Commission-registered
futures industry salespeople and associated persons, and 4,100
commodity trading advisers and commodity pool operators. Some
off-exchange transactions involving instruments similar in nature
to futures contracts also fall under CFTC jurisdiction.
The Commission's regulatory and enforcement efforts are designed to
ensure that the futures trading process is fair and that it
protects both the rights of customers and the financial integrity
of the marketplace. CFTC approves the rules under which an
exchange proposes to operate and monitors exchange enforcement of
those rules. It reviews the terms of proposed futures contracts,
and registers companies and individuals who, handle customer funds
or give trading advice.
The Commission also protects the public by enforcing rules that
require that customer funds be kept in bank accounts separate from
accounts maintained by firms for their own use, and that such
customer accounts be marked to present market value at the close of
trading each day.
Futures contracts for agricultural commodities were traded in the
United States for more than 100 years before futures trading was
diversified to include trading in contracts for precious metals,
raw materials, foreign currencies, commercial interest rates, and
U.S. Government and mortgage securities. Contract diversification
has grown in exchange trading volume, a growth not limited to the
newer commodities.

Futures Contract:
A futures contract is a contract for the delivery of a
specified quantity of a commodity on or before a specified
date in the future, at a price which is agreed upon at the
time the contract is executed. Both parties to a futures
contract are obligated to fulfill the contract at the agreed
upon price, even if fulfillment results in loss to one of the
parties. Fulfillment of a futures contract can be
accomplished by making or taking delivery of the underlying
commodity or by entering into an offsetting transaction.

public med i a .
Leverage Contract:
A standardized agreement made with a leverage merchant which

A commodity option is a unilateral contract which gives the
buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a.
specified quantity of a commodity at a specified price within
a specified period of time, regardless of the market price of
that commodity at that time. An option to purchase a
commodity is termed a call; an option to sell a commodity is
t ermed a put .

2-National Technical
Information Services
National Technical Information Services (NTIS) is the central
source for the public sale of U.S. Government -sponsored research,
development, and engineering reports, as well as foreign technical
reports and other analyses prepared by national and local
government agencies, their contractors, or grantees. It is the
central source for federally generated machine processable data
files and manages the Federal Software Center for int ragovernmental
distribution. NTIS is one of the world's leading processors of
specialty information.
NTIS information collection exceeds 1.4 million titles, about
250,000 of which contain foreign technology or marketing
information. All are permanently available for sale, either
directly from the 80,000 titles in shelf stock or from the
microfiche masters of titles less in demand. Seventy thousand new
reports of completed research are added to the data base annually.
Each year, NTIS supplies its customers with more than 6 million
documents and microforms. It ships about 23,500 information
product s dai 1 y .
Full summaries of current U.S. and foreign research reports and
other specialized information, in hundreds of subject categories,
are published regularly by NTIS in a wide variety of weekly
newsletters, a biweekly journal, an annual index, and in various
subscription formats for other Federal agencies. The complete
texts of the reports cited are sold in printed form and microform.
Anyone seeking the latest technical reports or wanting to compile
unique subject groups of abstracts may search the NTIS
Bibliographic Data Base online, using the services of organizations
that maintain the data base for public use through contractual
relationships with NTIS. The entire data base also may be leased
in machine readable form directly from NTIS. The more timely
abstracts are continually grouped by NTIS into paperbound
"Published Searches", covering some 4,000 topical subject areas.
Customers with well-defined, continuing interests subscribe to a
standing order microfiche service (SRIM), which enables them
automatically to receive the full texts of only those documents
relating to their individual requirements. A similar service
provides the automatic distribution of paperbound reports.
NTIS sells its technical information products and services under
the provisions of title 15 of the United States Code. The law
establishes a clearinghouse for scientific, technical, and
engineering information and directs NTIS to be self-supporting.
NTIS, therefore, is a Government agency sustained only by its
customers. It operates very much as a business, but in the public
service. All the costs of NTIS products and services, including
rent, telephone, salaries, marketing, postage, and all other usual
